'he Band Is A “Firestarter” The Lake Preston High School Band had a busy year under the direction of Kathy Boullion. The band started by practicing hard and then marching for Pow Wow Days in Huron and then on the Hobo Days in Brookings. After this they started preparing for individual contest at Watertown which was held on March 30. Here they had great success with eight superior ratings on both solos and ensembles. An additional nine participants received the ratings of excellents plus the jazz band who also received an excellent. On May 1. the band went to Milbank for large group contest where they walked away with a whopping one minus. To end the year the band performed a spring concert on May 14. Throughout the year the pep band was always there when the basket- ball teams, football teams, or the pep ralleys needed someone to cheer them on. For the first time in years the Lake Preston band had two students accepted to All-State Band. Carol Hesby, a senior, was chosen for her second year to participate in the band. She was ranked as being the fourth best percussionist in the state which is a great honor. Also accepted to be an alternate in the band was Ronda Palmlund, a sophomore. She was allowed to attend all rehearsals and received a first year member medal. The band felt they had a good year and are looking forward to the upcoming years. An all-girl band?
